Any truth to this about Obama's text messages?

I heard Obama has been trying to send the text message who his pick is for Vice-President, but there are problems with the mass texting and carriers are stopping it as spam.

1. Where'd you hear that? nt

3. A friend told me she read it on a forum.

5. I think they're pretty tech-savvy over there. Plus, people had to

sign up for the msg, so I don't know how that would work. I didn't sign up. I figured it might be mentioned here once the msgs go out. ;)

8. They also sent a follow up text to everyone, so it should work.

2. First I heard of it. Hope that is not the case.

That could be embarrassing.

4. Nope. There will be email alerts as well, and my server specifically accepts his messages.

10. I signed up for the e-mail alert!

Anxiously waiting!!!

6. Oh come on.

7. Lie

Since they are sending it via email aswell.

9. That sounds more like a problem that the McCain campaign would come up against.

The Republicans' hate of science and thus, technology has now come back to bite them on their collective asses.

11. No, I'm sure the media would be reporting such a rumor.

12. And if even just a handful got through, the news would spread like

wildfire on the Internet.

13. The campaign has been communicating with supporters via txt message

since the primaries, I'm not sure why it would suddenly stop working. Sounds like an urban legend to me. Maybe that means he will pick Richard Gere.
